If we're going to put it back in 9.2, then we shouldn't remove it now. We should just make it work. It's a three line patch. If 9.2 is going to meaningfully distinguish between write location and flush location, then we may as well do the same thing in 9.1. Then we'll be ahead of the game: not only will the view have the same columns in both releases, but they'll actually have the same semantics in both releases. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
